CHIARENZELLI Dept. of Geology, St. Lawrence University, Canton, NY 13617 INTRODUCTION Diamonds in New York State? While it may be hard to believe, just over 100 years ago local residents and scientists thought that there was a very strong possibility of finding diamonds in upstate New York (Figure 1)1. This diamond rush lasted for the first few decades of the 20th century, but after numerous failed attempts, the diamond hunt was over and this interesting episode in New York State’s history was largely forgotten. Below we provide a chronological outline of the scientific discoveries and reports on the kimberlitic rocks of central New York, followed by detailed descriptions of the three dikes that will be visited on today’s field trip. For a more detailed discussion of the ages and origins of these unusual rocks, the reader is referred to Kay et al. (1983) and Bailey & Lupulescu (2015). Figure 1: Early 20th century newspaper articles illustrating the period of diamond exploration in central New York. Left: Syracuse Herald, July 16, 1906, p.9; Right: Syracuse Post-Standard, Nov. 28, 1905, p.14 1 NOTE: Most of the figures in this field trip guide are available on-line, and in color, at: http://www.nysga-online.net/nysga-2017-guidebook-maps-and-images/A5 160 HISTORY OF RESEARCH ON NEW YORK STATE KIMBERLITES What prompted the diamond rush in central NY at the turn of the 20th century? It all started in 1887 with the recognition by British geologist Henry Lewis that the diamonds in South Africa were derived from unusual mica-bearing peridotites that he named “kimberlites” (1888; Mitchell, 1986).

  • Honoring Hunger Action Month

    Honoring Hunger Action Month

    Statewide News Taste NY Updates NYS Grown & Certified Updates Funding Opportunities Spotlight: The Great New York State Fair Honoring Hunger Action Month September is Hunger Action Month, providing an opportunity to raise awareness about hunger and food insecurity in our communities. Proudly, New York State has long been committed to the fight against hunger, launching several groundbreaking initiatives and programs in recent years, including the Council on Hunger and Food Policy, Vital Brooklyn, and the No Student Goes Hungry initiative, to combat hunger, improve access to healthy, locally grown foods, and bring New York-grown foods and beverages to underserved communities. Most recently, the Department’s Nourish New York initiative, which was created to address food insecurity during the pandemic, has brought millions of pounds of New York produced foods to New Yorkers who need it most. We encourage everyone to show their support by wearing orange on Hunger Action Day, recognized this year on September 17, 2021. Additionally, take action by visiting https://www.feedingamerica.org/take-action/hunger-action- month to find out more about how to help this month and year-round. Many of New York’s food banks are participating with special food drives and events, so be sure to check out your local food bank and see how you can help. Department Releases Diversity and Racial Equity Report It is more urgent now than ever to increase, sustain, and diversify farming and land access across the country, including in New York. As part of those efforts, the Department released a report from the members of the Diversity and Racial Equity Workgroup, which provides recommendations on actions we can take to develop a more equitable agricultural industry and empower Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) farmers across New York.

SIMONE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Daniel J. Simone 2 To Michael and Tessa 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A driver fails without the support of a solid team, and I thank my friends, who supported me lap-after-lap. I learned a great deal from my advisor Jack Davis, who when he was not providing helpful feedback on my work, was always willing to toss the baseball around in the park. I must also thank committee members Sean Adams, Betty Smocovitis, Stephen Perz, Paul Ortiz, and Richard Crepeau as well as University of Florida faculty members Michael Bowen, Juliana Barr, Stephen Noll, Joseph Spillane, and Bill Link. I respect them very much and enjoyed working with them during my time in Gainesville. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Julian Pleasants, Director Emeritus of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and I could not have finished my project without the encouragement provided by Roberta Peacock. I also thank the staff of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. Finally, I will always be grateful for the support of David Danbom, Claire Strom, Jim Norris, Mark Harvey, and Larry Peterson, my former mentors at North Dakota State University. A call must go out to Tom Schmeh at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, Suzanne Wise at the Appalachian State University Stock Car Collection, Mark Steigerwald and Bill Green at the International Motor Racing Resource Center in Watkins Glen, New York, and Joanna Schroeder at the (former) Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC).
